A Third kind of a recreation that this young
Prince is said to take a delight in, which is the
squirting ink and water out of a lyringe, occasion'd
the other day a pleasant dialogue between his
majesty and the doorkeeper of the Chamber, one
monsieur Balon _ Balon, dit le Roy, ouvrez ta
bouche. - Pourquoy, Sire, dit le Huissier; Parceque
je le veux, repondit Sa Majesté; mais, je ne le
veux pas, moi; sorries the other; the King perceiving
the man's obstinacy, contented himself with
squirting in his face, which the poor fellow
digested better than if it had been in his mouth.
